Demonstration on Grafting in Brinjal

Brinjal wilt is one of the major limiting factor in production. The wilt is caused by Ralstonia Solanacearum. This can be effectively managed by grafting Agassaim or Taleigao types on wild brinjal or surya variety rootstock. This technology has been standardized by ICAR  Central Coastal Agricultural Research Institute, Old Goa. A demo on grafting was organized on 22-11-2016 at ICAR  Central Coastal Agricultural Research Institute, Old Goa which farmers from Pilar, Neura and Surla participated.
